Hearts boss John McGlynn says that retaining the Scottish Cup gives the side motivation to beat Edinburgh rivals Hibernian tomorrow.

John McGlynn has said that Hearts want to keep hold of the Scottish Cup for a second year.

Hearts face Edinburgh rivals Hibernian in the fourth round tomorrow, a repeat of last season's final.

The Hearts boss said: "We are the holders and because of that we want to keep a hold of it.

"That gives us extra motivation, not necessarily pressure. I think the pressure is on Hibs.

"It's a good few years now since they won it and we've won it twice recently, if memory serves me right, and three times in just slightly longer."

Hibernian have not won the Scottish Cup since 1902, and are without a win over Hearts since 2009.
